Do you know someone who would be a great at-large party delegate? Are you interested in running?If so, submit a nomination form!

At this year's convention, two at-large delegate seats are open and four at-large delegates--Roberto Clack, Manny Diaz, Mayra Lopez, and Jay Travis--are running for re-election. As a reflection of our commitment to racial and gender justice, the Party Committee strongly encourages women of color to consider running for UWF leadership.
